...ANd I will bring Alabama White BBQ sauce for dipping...so how many do you think I should bring?...
Wait, I'm sorry, hold up. What? White BBQ sauce? I'd google this, but I'd rather an experienced inforooster inform me as to what in the hell this is! I'm a man who loves his BBQ sauce and doesn't like when it's messed with. So I gotta know what's up with this, and how good it is!
Alabama white BBQ sauce is not like a traditional BBQ sauce. It is a mayonnaise based BBQ sauce and not like the tomato based we are so familiar with. Mayo with black pepper, white vinegar, lemon juice, salt, and maybe a little sugar. I was skeptical at first, then found out I like it!

Leave it to Alabama to screw up BBQ sauce!!! Ugh....
BBQ Sauce is supposed to be tomato based dammit!!! also, I can't stand mayonaise (the condiment, not you mayo)

As long as it's not mustard based I'm in... North Carolina, I love you, but your barbecue sauce is all wrong.
What's the general percentage of vegetarians at brunch? I can double up on my black bean dip recipe, it's meat free.

That sounds like coleslaw without the cabbage to me. Any comparison?
As someone who grew up close to Memphis all these things you guys are calling BBQ sauce are making me throw up in my mouth a little. Sauce should be vinegar based with fiery chilies inside it. If you want tomato based put a little ketchup on as well. Real men just pile on the slaw and sauce and go to town.

Maybe a little, with lots of black pepper. Looks like this,

WRONG!!!! And when you taste my homemade BBQ sauce (made with homemade ketchup) this summer you will agree.....
I am not saying other things can not be good, I am just saying they are not BBQ sauce . Honestly there is not a lot of great options in middle TN at all for good BBQ. Where I come from you should not eat it if they are even thinking about cooking something other than a pig at a place.
Some people might say that BBQ sauce doesnt exist/should never be used for true BBQ and that a reall BBQ is just that meat on a BBQ and it is about tasting the smokey flavors and such. Just saying

That is how I feel about strong sauces like Ketchup/Mustard/Mayo??? based products. They cover up the flavor of the meat. What I call sauce tends to be the consistency of water and it is there to accent the flavor and add heat.

Honestly, I thought the white BBQ sauce tasted like ranch dressing. Not bad, just not what I'd want on my BBQ.
And Bunny consider HUSHPUPPIES from Greenbrier an official "on the list!" No meat products for the vegetarians...cooked in peanut oil for anyone sensitive but OMG!!! The BEST thing you put in your mouth! Seriously! ANd I will bring Alabama White BBQ sauce for dipping...so how many do you think I should bring? It is looking like I will have the means to heat them up in an oven before bringing them so they should be just like fresh....just help me figure out how many we need. I got 12 Dozen for Bamaroo that year and we had a bunch left over. They are pretty dirt cheap so I can get like 20 dozen for less than $30 so it's not a bit investment...just let me know ;D
What's the general percentage of vegetarians at brunch? I can double up on my black bean dip recipe, it's meat free.
I would say it's about average, 10% or so. Which means there are maybe 6? Funny thing about vegetarian food and carnivores, if it tastes good they will eat it, usually first.
I guess I could fire up my weather balloon but I am not sure I want to haul a helium cylinder to TO with all my other crap.
Is this possible? I'd be afraid they would think it's NO2. I will bring one if so. You get them at a party store? I have always wondered how people blow up those big ass balloons.
Also I have found a few rainbow unicorn balloons. This one would be perfect! It's huge.
count me in...0-3 in attendance so far, but i'm shooting for 1-4 this year. and a giant unicorn balloon would be awesome. is there any way we could use multiple unicorn balloons creating some unicorn porn action? if an info-rooer misses that one...also, i'll come up with something to bring and let you know...flying in this year.

I just looked and helium tanks are not on the no no list for Roo. Is there any potential problem with driving long distances with them? I've wondered about those balloons for three years, now I get it.

You can buy them over the interwebz and have them shipped, so I'd think there would not be a problem with travelling.

I think it's pretty evident in line to get into roo. Will having a giant balloon attract the wrong kind of crowd?
In retrospect what if we cant get camped where we have it marked? I would hate for some random people in TO to have inforoosters walking around looking for us all weekend. I guess I could fire up my weather balloon but I am not sure I want to haul a helium cylinder to TO with all my other crap.
Yeah, I didn't consider that. I could at least mark Matt's tree and the parade route. That will be helpful to some of the Roo virgins.
Possible shade in the general area where camp inforoo typically is? Or no?

Trust me...I HATE mayo (the condiment...not YOU darlin'! ) and I do LOVE my white BBQ sauce...especially on hushpuppies! ;D
But yeah, it's definitely different....kinda like ranch I guess...much tangier and more of a punch. It was invented to be served on smoked chicken...'cause the red vinegar stuff would overwhelm it....and it's just perfect for that! I don't really care for it on pork, it's a little TOO tangy but for anything a little sweet...like Hushpuppies..it's perfect! And I love that is't truly an Alabama thing...no where else have I seen it...
OK, I'm getting a bottle of Fincher's BBQ sauce from Macon and bringing it. If its good enough for the Allmans, its good enough for Inforoo. and I was raised on the stuff. switched over directly from baby formula to Fincher's lol

From what I'm reading foil balloons last for a few days. Much longer then your average latex ones. Also, you can apparently pay extra for something called Hi-float.
If we can find some foil unicorn balloons, then we could be rocking and rolling.
Also, I'll be in the RV section and will have plenty of room to bring in something heavy. I can also bring hand trucks. Just a heads up. I'm obviously not referring to anything against the rules. Just saying that if someone has something to heavy to haul to the brunch, I might can help you out.
That's a 43" mylar balloon so it should suffice. It comes in blue as well. There's another one which is just the head of a unicorn.
The helium is not cheap, but doable. I hesitate to buy a disposable tank for environmental reasons. The refillable ones are too big and way too expensive.
Maybe bringing them already inflated is an option.

Yeah, that's totally an option. We don't need something huge. If we pull together and have a pile of unicorn balloons it will do.
1. Buy Unicorn balloons that will last 2 days. 2. Tie them on extra long strings. 3. Float them on the outside corners of camp inforoo. 4. Brainstorm how to make a central sign and fly it higher then the rest. 5.... 6. Profit.
Edit: balloons and a photoshopped map leading people in the right direction. What else can we do?

Can we get one of those giant smoke ring makers? Like the one over my head in my avatar pic. ;D
About BBQ, I agree with Chez, true good BBQ does not need sauce, like a good steak. A good dry rub, smoked "low n slow" over some hickory or cherry wood chips(or whatever you like), ummmmmm good! no sauce needed! Pappy's in St Louis does this like no other. "yeah dude, we smoke" and yes, Alabama white BBQ sauce has nothing to do with BBQ, but still has a tasty place in the culinary world. Excited to try it with some of bamabelle's hush puppies.

I haven't thought of that SP episode in quite a while! Thanks for reminding me of it. Too funny.
